'The shortest comeback I remember': Has David Cameron 'gotten away with it'? | LBC

As David Cameron steps back from frontline politics and resigns from the shadow cabinet, James O'Brien considers how much he is to blame for 'Britain's decline'.
Cameron, who had served as Foreign Secretary in Rishi Sunak's government up until the election, will be replaced by Andrew Mitchell, who served as Foreign Office Minister in Government.

The former PM said taking on the role had been a "huge honour", adding that he was "delighted" the role had gone to a "good friend".

It follows the Conservatives' election drubbing, which saw them drop to just 121 seats - their lowest in the party's history.

"It’s been a huge honour to serve as Foreign Secretary, but clearly the Conservative Party in opposition will need to shadow the new Foreign Secretary from the Commons," Cameron said.
